Dec 2001 -

Does anyone remember the Rubik's Cube craze? Well we had a Chief Engineer who was determined to 'crack it' so to speak regardless of how long it took. Dave's submission as to how long it would take him!
The cartoons on these pages were drawn by Dave Clarke, Second Engineer Townsend-Thoresen, whilst on board Free Enterprise II, Viking Venturer, Viking Valiant etc. in the mid-70s and early 80s. As I recall Dave left and went to work on the North Sea supply vessels. The following are a tribute to all sea going staff who are often expected to work miracles, do the impossible under extreme conditions and pamper to the demands of those ashore who don’t, in most cases, know their ass from their elbow.

Quo Vadis....Where do you want to go??!!
